How to use uncomfortable in a sentence?

1. Jeb Bush:

   I've got a story to tell and he doesn't and that's the difference. He kind of validated the weakness of his campaign. Now, having said that, what I feel uncomfortable about is that he's a great guy and he's my friend and I admire him, i think I'm more ready to be President. Part of this is comparing and contrasting. I don't feel good when a friend is getting beaten up. I don't feel good about it at all.

2. De La Rue:

3. Sigal Klipstein:

4. Williams College:

5. Lana Wachowski:

   The summer is built around familiarity, many cultural critics who shape awareness for films are obsessed with sequels and derivative material. They wildly crave it. That kind of environment is hostile to originality. It only makes space for derivative material and rejects originality. I think Warner Bros. was uncomfortable with that environment.
